The Will of Abraham Sands.

The will Of the late Abraham Sands, who
recently died in Butte, has been presented
for probate in the County Court in Denver.
The amount Of property left by Mr.. Sands
is estimated at a round half a million. He
gives and bequeaths unto his mother, dur
ing the full term Of her natural life, the sum
OF $500 per annum After the death of his
mother he gives to his brother, Samuel
Sands, as an annuity to his support, the
sum OF $3.50 per annum. He gives unto
Mount Sinai Hospital of the city OF New
York the sum OF $500, to be paid within
ore year OF his demise. He b%equeathes to
the. Hebrew Orphan Asylum of New York
$500. A similar sum is bequeathed to the
Denver Orphans Home. He gives unto his
wife, for and during the term of her natural
life, all OF the income, rents, issues and
profits OF every way and nature to arise
and come due from all the lands and tene-
ments, goods and chattels, including all es-
tate, both real a d personal, OF every
From and after the death OF his
wife he bequeaths the remainder of his es-
tate to his surviving children and their
heirs. He provides that the executors of
the estate shall provide each daughter with
a suitable trosseau and present her with
the sum OF $25, 900 as a wedding gift, which
shall be deducted from her share at the
final distribution of the estate. The execu-
tors are ordered to pay to Sylvester Sands

nth year a sum not less than $4,000 nor
more than $50, 900.

The Toledo Blade, which does not main
tain the temper OF it's traditional mettle, is
out in a series of interviews with the prom.
inent Republicans of the country on their
Presidential preferences. OF these Blaine
stands first with 11,O16. Sherman comes
second on the list with 6,634. Sherman
comes to the front, however, as second
choice with 1858. OF course, these are
largely Ohioans, which would tend to show
that Blaine even leads Sherman for first
choice in his own State. That Mr.. Blaine
will be the choice of the national conven-
ton OF the Republican party for the Presi-
dency car hardly be questioned. But one
man, and that man is his hereditary ene-
my, can defeat him for the nomination.
And that man is Roscoe Conkling, who
may make up his mind to un-
do the Plumed Knight in the
New York delegation. But
it doubtless suits his purpose better to al
low him to get the nomination and then
to defeat him before the people in the
State OF New York, an accomplishment
which he worked and has the power to
work again. One thing is certain, and that
ia that the next presidential election will
be close, and it's conclusions fraught with
great results to The country. While we
car hardly indorse all the acts of Presi-
dent Cleveland's administration, we are
constrained to recognize his strength with
the masses Of the people and more espe.
cially with the business interests thereof
which he has subserved.

Mining Notes.

The main shaft of the Sheridan mine a.
Meaderville is down 225 feet and an ali
shaft is being sunk to connect with it. 81,
men are employed there at present cross
cutting, and the expectation is that tn,
ledge will be cut very soon.
About a month ago three cars of ore were
shipped to Clark's smelter from the Cham
pion, at Dry Gulch. Madison County, which
returned to the owners over and above ex.
penses $6,27O. Sinking is progressing and
the ore raised at the mine will be dumped
until another shipment is accumulated
The ledge is three and one-half feet thick
and they are only down thirty feet. A
gentleman OF the name of Moore, of Melrose,
owns the mine.
Chamber syndicate are being built in a sub.
masonry.
Drifting still continues in the shaft sunk
for supplying the Blue Bird mill with pure
water for milling purposes. Ninety tons
per day of twenty-four hours are being put
through the mill. :.
There is a rumor in circulation of the
early closing down Of the works of the Or
phan Girl, but in view of the ascertained
width OF the ore body and it's rich assay
value it is probable that the bond will be
taken up by other capitalists than those
now operating the mine.
The Butte Reduction Works have shut
down for two or three days owing to the
shortage of coke. They will take advan-
tage OF the lay off and do some needed re.
pairs on their works. When they start up
they will confine themselves to cleaning up
the ore Q in the yard as at present they
are receiving little ore.

Nov, let the lion roar, shake his name
and curl his tail over his back. An Ameri-
can e cutter has had the audacity to
seize one Of his sealers which wan operating
in forbidden waters in Alaska. The captain
of the seized sealer swore by the Union
Jack that he would raise q row through
his government. An American sealer was
seized at the anne time by the same
cutter which appears to be looking
sharply after the interests Of the seals, who
find their only harbor for feeding their
young in the inlets. But it is right. This
sealing business will he pushed to extremes
and the supply exhausted in a few years if
it is not looked after by the authorities.
The law provides that but one hundred
thousand seals shall be taken per year,
and those in the open waters. Great care
should be taken in the selection OF enumera-
tors, who, if they are susceptible to
bribery, may allow a million taken
per year for a consideration.

The MINER has not vet seen it's Wav Gle

The MINER has not yet seen it's way cleal
to withdraw it's censure of the manage
ment OF the Northwest Magazine for giving
Butte the benefit of it's superior facilities
for advertising the resources and the devel.
opment OF the city. It was entitled to the
first consideration Of any city of this great
Territory by reason of it's vast industry,
unsurpassed by any city in this or any
other country. That Butte did not receive
it's just deserts in this matter, We know,
was because OF a misconception on the part
OF it's local correspondent, as was
stated in Sundays paper,
who labored under the delusion that he
was writing for the August number, but
therefore his splendid papers dealing with
u great mines could.pot be utilized and
some miserable subterfuges were substi-
tuted in the emergency that thus arose.

little girl, and Mr.. Silver retaliated by
giving the boy a good shaking. He ran to
his mother and complained. The houses
occupied by the two families are only a few
feet apart, and Mrs. Carpenter, who was
engaged in the domestic occupation of iron.
ing, interrupted her work l ing enough to
make a raid on Mr.. Silver, fiat iron in
hand, and inform him in vigorous language
that she was perfectly competent to raise
her children without his assistance, and, as
testified to by some of the witnesses,
adorned her remarks with a few fowery
figures OF speech expressing her doubt OF
his legitimacy. Mr.: Silver was so depressed
by this imputation that he sought redress
from Judge Hamilton and a jury of six
impartial citizens, but he failed to convince
them that the Territory had suffered any

occurrence, and SO Mrs. Carpenter went

capital is invested, but the %refneries are

far all of the foreign interests have been
acting in harmony against the King and

the part of our general government TO take

The smuggling OF opium across the line OF

The smuggling OF opium across the line Of
our Northern frontier is becoming so com.
mon that the Treasury Department has
taken the matter in hand and has eau.
toned Custom officials to exercise greater
vigilance in examining packages. 1t was
but recently that a seizure was made at
San Francisco which had been shipped over
the Canadian Pacific to Winnipeg and de.
livered at Minneapolis over the Manitoba
line. Thence it was sent to Omaha, where
an agent carried it in his baggage to San
Francisco, where he was on the point OF
disposing OF it when he was detected in the
act and brought to book. 1t is the plan of
the Treasury Department now to place a
check on the business.
